The NFL had to do what they had to do, but this is still completely unacceptable.
Monday’s wild card postseason contest between the Minnesota Vikings and Los Angeles Rams has been relocated to Arizona, according to an announcement Thursday night from the NFL. The league says they made the move in the “interest of public safety” as Southern California continues to deal with raging wildfires.

Originally, the game was set to happen Monday night at the SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California, with a kickoff time of 8:00 p.m. ET. Now, the game will take place at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona, the home of the Cardinals, at the same time.
Prior to their announcement, the NFL stated that they had a contingency plan if the Vikings-Rams game had to be relocated. Releasing a statement Thursday, the league said they came to the conclusion that the game would have to be moved following “consultation with public officials, the participating clubs and the NFLPA.”

And all of this may be because California couldn’t take care of their land …
Donald Trump was mocked for sounding the alarm on the California water/fire crisis during his interview with Joe Rogan.
Turns out, he was right.
Trump spent nearly 7 minutes ranting about the issue, blasting Newsom for doing nothing to fix the problem.

The Democrats 100% deserve the blame for all of this nonsense going on right now — what a disgrace!
